We
are almost at the end of the Massive Update. Here we have the latest
published issue of Magic the Gathering. These are pages from issue #4
where the story has culminated in an epic battle between our protagonist
and the person he has been hunting. Because this is the big battle that
has been culminating for a few issues there are a lot of really great
magic spells that are used and thus leading to some of my favorite
pages. I really had so much fun coloring some of my favorite magic card spells brought into the comic. Like you can see in page 16 the summoning of a Sturmgeist.

That is all for this update and the last comic update I will have. I hope you have been enjoying the large influx of posts. Next time we go back to the card art.

On this update as promised is some more comic work. Specifically one of my favorite pages from Magic #3. I really had fun with the different light sources on this page. I especially liked the first panel where Dack is surrounded by vampires.

Next update expect to see some new card art. But this time not from L5R.

Free Comic Book Day was awesome. Got to meet some great fans and had a good time hanging with the staff at Larger Than Life. Since I had so much fun I decided to share some photos from the day including one of me with a quick sketch I did of Ms Marvel for Larger Than Life's owner TJ.

Saturday May 5th is Free Comic Book Day and I will be signing copies of IDW's Magic the Gathereing comic at a local comic shop. I will be at Larger Than Life Toys and Comics from 10 AM - 1 PM. So if you want copies of Magic signed, have any questions for me, or just want to say hi feel free to sop on by.

I will also be selling some signed copies of my printed trading cards, postcards, and possibly even some large prints. If you are interested in getting some swag.

Hopefully I will see you there.

Larger Than Life is located at the Great Northern Mall4155 Rt. 31 Clay, NY 13041 (315) 622-1891

Well the day is finally here the release of IDW's Magic the Gathering comic and the big news..... I was the colorist for this.

This project has been amazing, not only did I get to work with such talented people, but also with a product I love so much. Even when I first started to read the script for this I was like; "I know what that is and I know this plane" I was geeking out to the fullest extent. And as amazing fantasy illustrator Chris Moeller (who did illustrate a variant cover for this issue) told me "it's through IDW, but you know Magic's got to approve it all, so it does touch hallowed ground at some point.' Which just the thought of that makes me smile.

Getting past all the geeking outness the project itself is amazing, the story by Matt Forbeck is awesome, and the linework by Martin Coccolo is just sublime. I mean the second I saw the way he penciled the comic I was thrilled. Especially the way he lets the texture of the pencil show it allows me to bring the colors through the dark shadow areas which is something I love to do. I just hope I did his fantastic linework justice.

The images attached are one of the covers by illustrator Aleksi Briclot and a few of my favorite pages in this issue. Which include our hero running away from a fight, getting into a fight, and about to get into another fight. Needless to say it is action packed.

This has all been really fantastic and I just wanted to thank my editor Carlos Guzman for being so amazing and bringing me in on this. It is a magic nerd's dream.

I hope everyone likes the comic. But make sure to go out there and buy it make it a best seller.
